What are Union?

A forged union is a three-piece joint that lets a line be disconnected without cutting pipe. Socket weld unions follow MSS SP-83; threaded unions are common on utility and maintenance points.

Selection guidance

Specify SW or threaded ends, NPS, class and seating style. Unions are preferred where future maintenance access is required. Related forms: 90° Elbow · 45° Elbow · Tee · Cross · all forged fittings.

Frequently asked questions

What are Union?

Forged Union are forged small-bore fittings used to join pipe, valves and instrumentation with socket weld or threaded ends. Size, class and material must match the piping class.

Which standards apply?

Dimensional: ASME B16.11 for most forged fittings; MSS SP-79 (reducer inserts), MSS SP-83 (unions) and MSS SP-95 (swage nipples / bull plugs) where applicable. Material follows the ASTM forging spec that matches the pipe (A182, A105, A350, A694, B564, etc.).

When should I choose Union?

Choose Union when the piping class and installation method call for this connection form. Confirm end type, NPS and Class 3000 / 6000 / 9000 on the purchase order.

What should be on the purchase order?

Material grade / ASTM class, end type (SW or threaded), fitting form, size, pressure class, quantity, destination, and documentation (EN 10204 3.1 or 3.2, PMI, NACE, TPI if required). Email sales@savoypipinginc.com.

Which standard covers socket weld unions?

MSS SP-83 covers socket weld unions. Threaded unions and other forged forms commonly reference ASME B16.11 / BS 3799 as applicable.
